The central vehicle registry in Prague, as well as in Pardubice, Karvina,
Kladno and Brno, has collapsed after the system was electronically
connected to the government databases of people and property addresses.
The
vehicle registration system has had numerous functionality problems ever
since it was launched this summer. The current outage means that the
vehicle registration office is unable to complete most of the visitors’
requests. During this time of the year, 250 to 300 people go to the
registration office daily. The former Transport Minister Pavel Dobeš was
pressured to step down from his post due to problems with the central
vehicle registry.
